humanity of jesus

In 1 Timothy 2:5, the apostle Paul wrote, “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.” Taken alone, this verse seems to indicate a distinction between God and Jesus Christ. Dr. David K. Bernard explains how Paul's statement fits with the whole of Scripture and its importance to understanding both salvation and the Oneness of God.

Jesus walks on water and enables Peter to walk on water. Who is this Jesus? I. He’s The prayerful man, vv22-23 where Jesus goes up on the mountain to pray. II. He’s The sovereign of the seas, vv24-25 where Jesus walks on water. III. He’s The great I AM, vv26-27 where Jesus calms their fears by revealing himself.  IV. He’s The enabling Lord, vv28-29 where Jesus enables Peter to walk on water. V. He’s The swift rescuer, vv30-31 where Jesus lifts Peter just as quickly as he shrieks “save me.” VI. He’s The adored deity, vv32-33 where the disciples confess & worship Jesus as the Son of God.
